Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

On Saturday 5th June 2010, members and friends of Romsey Rugby Club will cycle 100 miles from Taunton, Somerset back to their home ground in Romsey, Hampshire.

Romsey RFC are cycling in aid of Help for Heroes! (Charity Registration No. 1120920) We are sure whether or not you have connections with the Forces, you admire the work our Soldiers do and respect the risks they take. For these reasons and many more, we have chosen to cycle in support of the worthy charity Help for Heroes. We welcome all donations with the utmost gratitude.

"Help for Heroes was founded by Bryn and Emma Parry in October 2007 out of a desire to help the wounded Servicemen and women returning from Afghanistan and Iraq. The message of the charity is simple: 'We are strictly non political and non critical; we simply want to help. We believe that anyone who volunteers to serve in time of war, knowing that they may risk all, is a hero. These are ordinary people doing extraordinary things and some of them are living with the consequences of their service for life. We may not be able to prevent our soldiers from being wounded, but together we can help them get better.'"

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now. Every little bit helps!

Thank you!
